This is two hours work going back over the fairly small swimming zone  of a fresh water recreational lake. Just goes to show you that you don't always get it all the first time. Two rings are .925 and the second is 10k with blue somethings. I don't know if the ring is fine enough to have real sapphires? Its also marked "Mexico" but seems very old.

Just keep in mind that you probably didn't get it all the second time either. Ya never know what a slight change in sand depth might bring.

Very nice rings. I agree that the stones are probably sapphires. Well done.

Nice finds...I agree w/GaBeachSweeper. I've thoroughly hunted a spot on land that I know my coil has covered and stilled pulled silver out at later hunts. I would keep hunting that spot you have there hard.

Nice finds! Love those freshwater beaches! Just because a ring is sterling, or even 10K, don't just assume the stones are fakes. It's worth a trip to a jeweler. Good luck!
